Abstract | Bolezni kože predstavljajo tretji najpogostejši vzrok obolevnosti pri popotnikih. Večina kožnih sprememb je posledica okužb ali preobčutljivostnih reakcij, vzrok zanje pa so lahko tudi poškodbe, delovanje različnih toksinov in ultravijolične svetlobe. Pristop k obravnavi takšnega bolnika zahteva obsežno in natančno anamnezo, ki mora zajeti tudi podatke o poteku bolezni, popotniku in poteku potovanja.Skin diseases are the third most common cause of morbidity in returning travellers. The majority of skin diseases are of infectious origin, while other causes of skin diseases include trauma, injuries by toxins and ultraviolet light and hypersensitivity reactions. A thorough history, combined with a tareted examination and testing, is essential. This history should cover three broad areas: details of the skin problem, traveller-specific factors and travel-specific factors. | |
